@oahumed: Turn up the volume! 🔊🩺 Taking blood pressure isn't just about watching the numbers. It's also about knowing what to listen for! When measuring blood pressure manually, Medical Assistants listen for Korotkoff sounds through a stethoscope. 🩺 Systolic: The first tapping sound you hear. 🩺 Diastolic: The point when the sounds disappear (in most adults). It takes practice, patience, and a trained ear to recognize these sounds accurately! At Oahu Medical Academy, students develop hands-on clinical skills, including measuring and recording vital signs. 💙 Interested in Medical Assistant training?
